Prisoner of love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Alone from night to night you'll find me
Too weak to break the chains that bind me
I need no shackles to remind me
I'm just a prisoner of love
For one command I stand and wait now
From one who's master of my fate now
I can't escape it's much too late now
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring if someone is sharing those arms with me
Although he has another, I can't have another for I'm not free
He's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to him I'm creeping
My very soul is in his keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love
